'The most recent analysis shows that in 2004, 87,000 people from black or minority ethnic communities (BME) said they had been a victim of a racially motivated crime. In the same period, 92,000 white people said they had also fallen victim'
'Focusing on violent racial attacks, 49,000 BME were victims. Among whites, the number was 77,000.'
